Troubleshooting & Treating Pool Stains

Just like your favourite t-shirt, a pool can become the victim of an unsightly stain.  They are either caused by metals such as iron, copper or manganese entering the pool water or organic matter such as pigments from plants which have accumulated in the pool.

  1. Start by ensuring the pH level of your pool is between 7.2 and 7.6.
  2. Add All In One Stain Remover.
  3. Should the stain be metal based then the addition of Metal Remover is required.
  4. When the treatment is complete, ensure that the pH level is between 7.2 and 7.6.

Note: All In One Stain Remover will only lift stains.  Metal Remover will remove the metals to the filter and ultimately out of the pool.

Stains in Fibreglass pools could also be caused by Osmosis.  Should this be the cause of the stain then the use of Fibreglass Stain Remover is recommended.
